Abstract Gesture recognition and control is a relatively modern concept, humans through their body gestures generate physical control signals in order to interact and control technologies around them. It has found important application in the field of robotics, electrical appliances, computer gaming, fitness accessories and other sectors. This paper showcases a new mechanism which assists people with disabilities, specifically people who don’t have completely developed arms or have lost their arms in an accident during their lifetime. The mechanism employs accelerometer to recognize gesture and generate control signals accordingly. These signals then have been used to steer a vehicle. Accelerometer is installed on a module which is strapped on to the tip of disabled person’s amputated arm. This mechanism being electronic in nature is an upgrade from previously available mechanical driving assistance mechanisms.
